It was heartwarming to see so many little Elsa and Annas in attendance at the National Arts Centre yesterday evening for Broadway Across Canada’s opening night performance of Disney’s Frozen. Children in the Ottawa-Gatineau area have been anxiously awaiting this moment to see their beloved princesses, Anna and Elsa, as well as the adorable but goofy Olaf, heroic Kristoff and his trusty reindeer, Sven, come to life on stage in this spectacular and, dare I say, even magical show.
